@l0lz!:

> God how I want a Wii, you wouldn't believe how bored I am of Gamecube. It's only fun when competing on melee.

I would rather a 360 then a Wii almost any day.  Theres so many good games for the 360 and not very many for the Wii
The only reason I got interested in it again is because I bought Final Fantasy: My Life as King, From the Wii Store

Good for you, I'm not into playing a lot of video games, especially a lot of shooters. I also do not like the Xbox controller, I can barley fit my small hands around it, let alone press any buttons. I'm interested in the Wii because it's inexpensive, it has some pretty intriguing games that are new and it has next installments from previous Gamecube games I've played, not to mention I can play my Gamecube games, and use my GC controllers. =,=

WARNING!!! There is risk to damaging your wii. Eclipse does not endorse any methods expressed in this post. I will not be held responsible for your wii if it messes up! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!

OK here is how I got external HD support working on my wii. You must have Home Brew Channel installed on your wii. I have a chip in my wii so I was able to install it without doing the TWsave hack. I have not done the hack so dont ask me how to. Look it up.

Once you have the HBC installed you need to install a custom cIOS. I am not actually sure what they are but they allow certian features to be enabled on the wii that are not normally available.

To run games off an external HD you need to install [cIOS36 v10](http://www.freemmorpgmaker.com/files/imagehost/pics/cd572fac8c3b261cd77fbe7ecd75a902.zip)
Copy this folder to your SD card in the apps folder. {\apps\cios36 rev10 installer}
Launch HBC and pick cios36 rev10 installer and run it. Just follow the prompts on the screen.

I am using [Ultimate USB Loader v7.4](http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=895e8cc2b79a4cda6b21be4093fab7acdc19b493ef43c009c95965eaa7bc68bc) in HBC. It is pretty configurable, and seems to work really well. Just copy all the folders to the root of your SD card.
When loading games to the HD the names are not always correct. For example Wii Play comes up as something like RSPE02 Party pack for Revolution. In the apps\usbloader folder there is a file called titles.txt. This [Titles.txt](http://rapidshare.com/files/221065544/titles.txt) file into that folder to have the correct names for your games. I noticed a few spelling errors that you can change in that file if you want. You could also name your game whatever you want with that file. Look at the config_readme.txt to go over the config information. I didnt really mess with it so it is not absolutely necessary.

Go to HBC and pick the usbloader program. To copy a game from the DVD to the HD just put your DVD in the drive and press + to install it. Press - to delete a game.
In USB Loader use the control pad to pick which game you want to play. You can dnload the cover for the game by highlighting a game, and pressing B. Then when you are in the options you press 1 to download the cover. You can also change video modes and other things in here. Press B to go back to the game menu.

Just select the game you want and press A to load the game. Save games are still accessed on the wii just like normal.

Left box is your game list. Right box is the cover image for the selected game.

Run WBFS Manager on your computer to copy iso images to your external drive. When you start WBFS pick your drive letter and click load. On the right hand side click browse and pick where your wii iso or wii rar file is.. You can load up as many as you want, then click on add to drive. Left hand side is wii games that are installed on the HD.
